Peacock Evolution
Storyboard Text
- Evolution of Peacocks By Eslibeth Ocampo and Ashley Gonzalez
- The variation between peacocks is that some have beautiful and very colorful fan like feathers, other peacocks are dull in color and have no feathers.
- The female peacock doesn't have interest in the dull, featherless peacock which makes the colorful peacock have a higher chance at mating. This follows Darwin's evolution theory of sexual selection.
- Over time the colorful peacocks continue to mate and reproduce offspring while the dull and colorless peacocks don't, they struggle to survive since they aren't reproducing and later die of natural causes which leaves only the colorful peacocks to reproduce.#160;
- Since there aren't anymore of the colorless peacocks, the colorful peacocks pass on their traits to their offspring making this the favorable trait that gets passed on through generations of future peacocks.#160;
- Sexual selection makes this trait the fittest for the environment as its a way of survival for the peacocks.#160;
